Journey to the Savage Planet to get free PS5 and Series X|S upgrade

Journey to the Savage Planet is a fun and unique first person shooter which sees you explore a number of wonderful and weird worlds while offering fun gameplay to boot. Almost exactly three years after its debut on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, the game is getting a free PS5 and Series X|S upgrade – while also throwing in its DLC as well.

Making the announcement on their blog, publisher 505 Games said “Greetings, Pioneers!

We are very excited to announce the Journey to the Savage Planet Employee of the Month Edition is coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox X/S on February 14th! Employee of the Month includes the original game and Hot Garbage DLC with optimized 4K Graphics for high-end consoles, 60fps on PS5 and Xbox X (30 fps on Xbox S), new in-game ads, new Martin Tweed videos and new photo mode filters and frames.”

As part of an FAQ released alongside the announcement, 505 Games confirmed that even if you did not own the DLC on PS4/Xbox One, Journey to the Savage Planet: Employee of the Month Edition will include the Hot Garbage DLC for free for PS5 and Xbox Series owners.

With it being an entirely separate SKU from the last-gen release, the Employee of the Month Edition is able to take full advantage of the current-gen consoles and so hopefully we see even more subtle upgrades when the free update goes live on the 14th of February.
